Best Diablo 2 Resurrected classes
With Patch 2.4 giving the game its first update in 11 years, the tier list has shifted slightly in response. Below we’ve listed all heroes of Sanctuary from best to worst. Of course, simply ranking the characters isn’t enough information, so we’ll get into the best builds too.
However, our general Diablo 2 class tier list goes:
Sorceress
Paladin
Barbarian
Assassin
Druid
Necromancer
Amazon
It’s important to remember, though, that if you love to play one of the lower tier characters and are having the time of your life shredding hell’s finest then that’s all that matters.
Best Diablo 2 Resurrected Builds
It’s one thing to say that the Sorceress is topping the charts, but that’s very much dependent on using the right build. Some builds are simply built better, while others can be a bit more of a struggle to work with.
Below are all of the current best builds, but expect these to change as the seasons progress:

Amazon--- Lightning Javazon
Paladin--- Hammerdin
